SSVC decision
Not assessed by CISA
EPSS probability
0.15% probability of exploitation activity in the next 30 days.
EPSS percentile
Equal to or higher than the score of 4.6% of scored records. A rank, not a probability.

NVD CVSS vector
No NVD score to derive
NVD analysis status
Received. NVD last modified this record on 2026-10-19.
